Dashboard & Host Overview

The Dashboard serves as your central command center in Containery, aggregating real-time status indicators, system metrics, and disk space statistics across all connected Docker hosts.

1. Dashboard Overview Cards

  • Navigation: Dashboard (click the Containery logo in the top-left sidebar or home icon).

Dashboard Overview

Overview Features

  • Multi-Host Aggregation: Displays separate status cards for every enabled Docker host configured in Containery.
  • Host Status Indicators:
    • Online: The Docker daemon is connected and responding normally over the Unix socket or remote proxy endpoint.
    • Offline: The target host is unreachable, offline, or timed out. Displays the connection error details.
  • Summary Metrics: Displays the total count of running containers, stopped containers, stored images, Docker Engine version, OS kernel, and CPU architecture.
  • Update Notification Banner: Automatically checks GitHub for new Containery releases and displays a banner when a newer version is available.

2. Deep-Dive Host System Statistics

  • Navigation: Dashboard > Click Host Card / Info.

Docker Host Overview

This view fetches detailed system telemetry (docker info) and storage usage (docker df) for the selected Docker host.

Docker System Info (docker info)

  • Engine Details: Docker Server Version, Storage Driver (e.g. overlay2), Logging Driver, Cgroup Driver, Cgroup Version (v1 / v2).
  • Hardware & Limits: Total Memory, CPUs, Memory Limit support, Swap Limit support, OOM Kill Disable support.
  • Security & Features: Security Options (e.g. apparmor, seccomp), Rootless Mode status, Experimental features flag.

Storage & Disk Usage Breakdown (docker df)

View exact disk space usage categorized into four main components:

  1. Containers: Total disk space consumed by writable container layers (diff size), total container count, and active running containers count.

  2. Images: Disk space consumed by stored Docker images, total image count, and active images in use by containers.

  3. Local Volumes: Disk space consumed by local Docker volumes, total volume count, and mounted volumes in use.

  4. Build Cache: Reclaimable disk space consumed by Docker build cache objects.
